Re: Electric oven into 13amp socket.

I have also looked up the cooker. It is 10.7KW so over 40 amps. It will need its own dedicated circuit. No way plug into a socket! It will probably come without cable as well.

Re: Exhaust renewal

If it where me I would try to remove studs possibly with the double nut method. Then replace with stainless studs (or stainless threaded bar of same thread cut to length)

Do you have any pictures of the said JK exhaust system as it might be my choice if there is a sale or discount on offer.

Re: Exhaust replacement, 1.9 watercooled, petrol 1990 (H)

I am planning to renew my exhaust system sometime this year and it's a task I am dreading! My studs look like rats turds!
